I'm no where near ready to try my hand at slip switches, but I'm laying out a series of modules in N scale and I thought I might take the take the plunge and built my own switches. The center of attraction is a largish (for a model railroad - right now 6 stub and 4 through tracks) passenger station and the supporting yards and head-end equipment facilities so there are plenty of nice, simple #6's and crossings. I figure I'll have perhaps 30 or so switches under my belt (plus rejects - I'm nothing if not a realist
) before I got to tackle the really tough stuff. Right now it looks like a total of perhaps half a dozen single and double slip switches and I was wondering if the double slip jigs serve for single slip jigs as well. From the template, it looks as if they can, at any rate.
(I tried to find the answer before asking and looked back through perhaps two years of previous posts, as well as the specs and missed the answer if it was there.)
Thanks.
Mike
